WP Speed of Light

Description

WordPress does not have a system for speed optimization by default. That’s why you need a powerful plugin that speed up WordPress with technical and advanced features, yet accessible to everyone.
WP Speed of Light starts with a cache and Gzip compression, plus, you got a file minification and group tools, a database cleanup system, a htaccess optimization, an auto cache cleaner and a full CDN integration.

When it comes to performance loading time, it requires some test to identify witch plugin, theme, page may require more attention.
WP Speed of Light also includes a speed loading test and compare, and a database queries test. To go one step beyond with your WordPress speed, a PRO ADDON upgrade (optional) with custom support is available.

It is, of course we can’t test with all dynamic element yet you have some options to exclude some specific URL from optimization. Feel free to send us compatibility request on our pre-sale forum or on the plugin directory support forum.

Is WP Speed of Light free?

Yes totally free of charge, fell free to install, update and even ask us questions on the WordPress plugin directory forum. We offer an optional free upgrade.

Is WP Speed of Light translated into other languages than english?

Yes, we use a translation tool accessible from the plugin setting where you can: get languages, translate, share translation with us (and get a gift for that)

Is WP Speed of Light compatible with WooCommerce?

Yes, we have added some specific code to remove specific dynamic data from cache.

How can I activate 100% of the optimization features?

In the plugin we’ve made a distinction between casual optimization like caching, Gzip compression, headers expire, query strings and advanced optimization like file group and minify.
You can activate all optimizations but, depending of your website, number and complexity of your plugins, that you remove some files or pages from this optimization to avoid problems.
All website cannot be 100% optimized even the big websites on the market like amazon.com

How can I get 100% on pagespeed test?

Some of the Google pagespeed recommendations require that you modify your plugin code, at least how the script are called, to defer some script loading for example.
At Google they’re actually smart enough not to consider a score based on criteria you can’t apply on all website BUT on loading time (reffer to the Google Search Console)
Our recommendation here:
1. Focus only on loading time, not on your score
2. Use webpagetest.org instead
3. All the tools are available to get a 100% page speed score in the plugin

Is WP Speed of Light compatible with any CDN? (Cloudflare, KeyCDN, MaxCDN)

Yes because the CDN resource call use URLs along with content inclusion and exclusion options only, so you can use any CDN service.

Is WP Speed of Light compatible with Varnish cache

Yes, there’s a specific integration in the optional pro addon, that offer the automatic Varnish cache cleaup on content save and manual cleaup.

I’ve been struggling with another plugin that promises to do what Speed of Light actually does. The other plugin is from a major premium subscription service but their design was confusing and it crashes when I try to make any changes to my site. (No names but everything is a super hero.) I got tired of disabling it to make a change and then running through their minification process every time I turned it back on.

I read a positive review of Light Speed plugin on wplift.com and gave it a try.

The setup was unbelievably simple and my site got a 100% right out of the gate on GTMetrix.com on the first score and an 85% on the 2nd which is higher than I had before.

I can also make minor changes and leave this plugin on which is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!

I use it on several sites and I do not have any problems with JS + CSS minification, which is not the case most of the time with other extensions of the same type. Simple to implement and effective, what more?

I got a great Plugin for cleaning my browsing history. I really woks. First of all I was unable to know its usefulness. This is a versatile Plugin for making my work faster. It gives me a very good experience .
